Hepatic ultrasonography in patients with lepromatous leprosy.
Abstract
Hepatic Sonography was done in 36 patients with lepromatous Leprosy and 3 patients with borderline lepromatous leprosy with the view to assess abnormalities of size, changes in the echotexture and to observe the presence of any nodules and calcification in the liver. Routine liver function tests were also done in these patients. No definite abnormal sonographic findings were seen in the liver in a large majority of these patients. One patient, however, showed nodular changes in the liver.
